HASTINGS -- Police found a 54-year-old Hastings woman had a 0.22 blood-alcohol level after neighbors complained she was riding her bicycle up and down their street, yelling and swearing.

Hastings police arrested the woman and a 33-year-old man, both reported as visibly intoxicated, for disorderly conduct.

Officers responded June 16 to the 1400 block of South Church Street about 10 p.m. after police received numerous 911 calls about two people trying to pick a fight with resident.

When officers arrived, the 54-year-old woman and 33-year-old man began yelling and swearing at an officer. The officer advised them to quiet down, but they refused and were arrested, Hastings police said.

Witnesses later told police that the woman had been riding her bike up and down the street, yelling and swearing and causing a disturbance that was waking their children.

The man had a blood-alcohol level of 0.16, twice the legal limit for driving.
